Interactive Mortality Charts and Graphs for the Visually-impaired Note: All graphs and charts are accessible to the blind and visually-challenged through text files, which are dynamically generated at the time the chart is created. These files are accessed through the [D] link located above and below the graph or chart. 5-year rates Rates by cancer Rates by state (bars) Rates by state (confidence intervals) Overview 5-year rates over time Rates by cancer Rates by state (bars) Rates by state (confidence intervals) Available file formats Section 508 compatibility Overview Create charts and graphs interactively by selecting from lists of variables. View values associated with a chart or graph by moving cursor over bar (chart) or marker (graph). "Drill down" from state to state economic area (SEA) or county (chart) or view values for U.S., state, and SEA, simultaneously. 5-year rates Rates by cancer Rates by state (bars) Rates by state (confidence intervals) 5-year rates over time View graphs of 5-year mortality rates per 100,000 person-years (1950-94 for whites and 1970-94 for blacks). Move cursor over marker to view data. View US rates only, US vs. state rates, or US vs. state vs. SEA rates. Rates by cancer View mortality rates per 100,000 person-years and confidence intervals by geographic region, age group, race, gender, and time period. Sort rates numerically or alphabetically by geographic region. Move cursor over bar to view data or "drill down" from state to SEA or county. Rates by state (bars) View mortality rates per 100,000 person-years for the various cancers for the entire US and state-by-state by geographic region, age group, race, gender, and time period. Move cursor over bar to view data or "drill down" from state to SEA or county. Rates by state (confidence intervals) View mortality rates (and confidence intervals) per 100,000 person-years for the various cancers for the entire US and state-by-state by geographic region, age group, race, gender, and time period. Move cursor over bar to view data or "drill down" from state to SEA or county. Available file formats Charts and graphs are available in several formats: Flash (default) - animated graphics format that permits the display of data "behind" a bar or graph when the cursor is moved over the bar or marker on the graph. "Drilldown" from state to SEA or county is also permissible under this format. Requires free plug-in from Macromedia, Inc. GIF - graphics format with copy/paste capabilities SVG - animated graphics format that permits the display of data "behind" a bar or graph when the cursor is moved over the bar or marker on the graph. This file format also has copy/paste capabilities. Requires free viewer from Adobe. Section 508 compatibility Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires that Federal agencies' electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities (see Federal IT Accessibility Initiative). All graphs and charts on this portion of the Web site can be accessed by the blind or visually-impaired through screen readers that read the text file ([D] link) that underlies each graph or chart.
